However to say a General only orders it is pathetic. General CommentOk first of all it is often correct to say a politician only orders men to die and pays no consequence. I'd love a peaceful solution, but if someone threatens the safety of my people, I'd go take those guys out before they take me out in a heartbeat. As a Conservative man, I can say I am anti-war, but you don't understand that it doesn't mean I wouldn't risk it to save the innocent. Hate Conservatives like myself all you like, but don't start interpreting a political song as a bash on us, just because it's a bash song. All the politicians did, was point the direction for the US military to go, and they did EVERYTHING else. It's not the politicians who are winning, it's the soldiers who are. It's the whole of the political leadership he's referring to, and how they are all willing to throw young lives out there, and start saying, "We are winning!" to the public. Not once does he mention, or describe the principles of EITHER party. He's talking about politicians in general.

I don't see anywhere he indicates Conservatives are the war-hungry bastards, nor does he say liberals, Democrats or Republicans are. Whatever happened to no one gets left behind What is it they're dying for, do you really even know Play your war games with other people's lives No one gets left behind, your turn is coming No one gets left behind, drink from the golden cup No one gets left behind, it's more for money No one gets left behind, I know you made it up Whatever happened to no one gets left behind, What is it they're dying for do you really even know No one gets left behind, or we all die alone No one gets left behind, we stand and fight together No one gets left behind, another broken home You'd think music fans were detectives with how seriously they took this challenge.No one get's left behind, another fallen soul Once this became clear, people set about trying to figure out what exactly lead singer Chris Martin and his band wanted to say. The cover itself is a graphic representation of the Baudot code.

To help people read a code that hasn't been used since the 19th century, Coldplay released a chart that pretty much functioned as a cheat sheet to decipher the album's message.

It's a whole system that includes how to differentiate between numbers and letters.

As MTV illustrates, 11000 is A, and 10011 is B, and so on. The Baudot code was the most widely used method of telegraph communication for at least 70 years before the Morse code was introduced.

It's a form of communication using a series of zeroes and ones, kind of how computers use ones and zeroes to communicate digitally. The Baudot code was developed and patented by Émile Baudot in 1874, explains MTV. Graphic artists and graphic art fans looked at the cover and liked how it managed to provoke emotions and study, something that very rarely happens with record design. X&Y's cover was something of interest to art critics back then, calling it more than a puzzle and more of an art piece. They used the color code to get people interested enough to try and decipher any hidden meanings. For Coldplay's cover art, the two deliberately moved away from the more familiar art used by other designers.

Design Observer explained the duo created the Chemical Brothers' cover art for their album Push the Button. The cover art was designed by graphic artists Mark Tappin and Simon Gofton of the team Tappin Gofton. Was Coldplay just closet Tetris fans or something? It wasn't until the band teased that there was something deeper that people started staring at it intently. When the album was first released, MTV said people didn't understand what was going on in the album. The X&Y cover features a multi-colored Tetris game in the middle of a dark blue background. Or at least, its album cover has hidden meanings.
